A solar storm is a catchall term that describes any disturbance in the sun that involves the violent ejection of solar material into space. This can come in the form of coronal mass ejections, where ...

Researchers have identified a period of sluggish magnetic field flipping for planet Earth, some 40 million years ago – raising big questions about how long these reversals actually take, and how we ...

The northern lights are expected to drift slightly further south from Earth's magnetic north pole and appear brighter than ...

Earth’s magnetic field, the invisible barrier that deflects solar radiation and makes surface life possible, is not permanent in its current orientation. Geologic records show that magnetic north and ...

The northern lights may be seen in U.S. states after dark on Tuesday, Feb. 17, through Wednesday, Feb. 18, after the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) warned that a minor G1-class ...

Earth’s magnetic field has flipped about 170 times in the last 100 m years, and the next reversal is not a matter of if but when. Far from a cinematic instant catastrophe, a flip would unfold over ...

A storm could be-fall us. Colorful leaves and cooler temperatures aren’t the only thing autumn is potentially bringing. Meteorologists predict that Earth could be blasted by a geomagnetic storm on ...

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has rolled out geomagnetic disturbance (GMD) modeling software designed for utilities.

The northern lights may be visible as far south as New York and Idaho in the coming days thanks to a geomagnetic storm roiling over Earth. These aurorae will result from the arrival of a coronal mass ...

(NEXSTAR) — The sun is deep in its solar cycle, sparking a strong solar flare and geomagnetic storming that could bring the northern lights to parts of the U.S. NOAA’s Space Weather Prediction Center ...

Several states across the northern U.S. may have a chance of seeing the northern lights Saturday as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration expects geomagnetic storm conditions to impact ...
